Ask HN: What are the features you build on AWS Lambda, Serverless?
- PaulHoule 9y agoI built an email newsletter system using Lambda, SQS, DynamoDB, S3, and SES. I think it is a perfect application for that stack because it gets nearly 100% uptime and durability without having to worry about keeping a server up. Even if I was handling 1000 requests a day, it wouldn't be worth keeping a server running, but if it grows I can scale it up quickly by just turning a few knobs.
- QuinnyPig 9y agoHuh. Swap SES for Drip (because SES is borderline crap) and you just described how I build and run “Last Week in AWS.” I tag links in Pinboard, then have a Lambda that consumes them into DynamoDB. Other Lambdas build out snarkive.lastweekinaws.com, the weekly newsletter template population, and setting static headers for CloudFront.
